Ball State Cardinals Football Tickets
Ball State Cardinals football has been part of Muncie, Indiana since 1924, growing from a teachers college team into a MAC contender with staying power. The Cardinals have captured Mid-American Conference titles in 1978, 1993 and 2020, punctuating that latest run with the program’s first bowl victory, a statement win in the Arizona Bowl over unbeaten San José State. Fans still talk about the 12-0 2008 regular season under Brady Hoke with quarterback Nate Davis lighting up defenses. Every fall brings rivalry heat with Northern Illinois for the Bronze Stalk Trophy, a must-watch on the calendar. Game days at Scheumann Stadium feel close-knit and electric: tailgates ring the venue, Charlie Cardinal roams, and the student section’s “Chirp! Chirp!” echoes across the berms as the Cards take the field.
